All Year Round Stitch-a-Long – September & March


This week I continued to stitch on my ' All Year Round' sal and stitched the September  segment, which is where the sal originally started (I didn't start mine until January, hence me playing catch-up) and the March segment, which sort of brings me up to date. I say sort of because the next issue of ‘Cross Stitcher’ magazine is already out, with the April chart.

So first is the September segment, which is beautiful Poppies 

and nestled between them is a cute little field mouse.
It's these extra special little details that add to my enjoyment  stitching this design, and the March segment is no different.

This part has lovely sunny Golden Daffodils to welcome the spring. 

The Peacock Butterfly is a great addition because they usually hibernate over the winter and emerge from their chrysalis  from early March.

  1. Oy! All that back-stitching but it well worth it. It is a beautiful piece.

  2. Luckily I don't mind backstitching Robin, but I must admit it's not nice trying to do it on aida when a lot of it goes between the stitches. It's much easier on linen! Happy Stitching! xx
